This compilation includes various diseases observed in Zoba-Anseba, Eritrea during a decade of time from 2007-2017. The total productive area of horticultural farms in this Zoba is over 26,885 ha and it is one of the most drought-prone regions of Eritrea. Farmers grow crops such cereals, oil seeds, vegetables and fruits etc. Enormous pathogens such as fungi, bacteria and other microbes; nematodes, and intervention of migratory insect pests cause a lot of damage to these crops and finally it leads in yield loss. In spite of application of chemicals, various botanical extracts also in practice to control some of these diseases. The methodologies used in this research were surveys, field experiments, diseases assessments and isolation of pathogens. Most of the fungal pathogens were identified and recorded their occurrence from various parts of the plants, at different phenological stages and also from the soils of these crops cultivated.
